Fang Xianzong maintained a dull expression, and after a moment he understood, "Are these fragments of Huan Zhen Tian..."
"The Fang family is indeed an ancient family."
Xu Chong shook his head, "Don't worry, after I become you, I won't take the initiative to provoke anyone, but I won't fight back if I get beaten. If that Fang Xianyu doesn't know what to do, I won't hesitate to send him to reunite with you."
"That, that's good...ahem."
Fang Xianzong coughed twice, and then said quickly: "I am usually very withdrawn in front of others. Even in the sixth house, I am not popular. If you want to completely disguise yourself as me, you only need to pay attention to a few things..."
Blood kept pouring from his mouth and nose, and Fang Xianzong spoke faster and faster. In just a few moments, he gave a brief introduction to the people in Liufang and pointed out possible flaws.
This made Xu Chong gradually frown.
Finally, Fang Xianzong grabbed Xu Chong's hand, with sincere eyes and weak tone: "My father, my brother, and I are all living in humiliation."
"I don't hate the Fang family's rules, I just hate myself for being useless."
"I will give you Fang Xianzong's identity...all of it to you."
"I just ask you to let these three words..."
"Resounding throughout...the Fang family..."
After spitting out the last few inaudible words, Fang Xianzong dropped his head and became completely silent.
Wu Xiangyi activates.
In the blink of an eye, all traces of blood, body and clothes, all of Fang Xianzong disappeared on the spot.
Only the jade talisman with blood lines fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Xu Chong didn't hesitate at all. The moment the illusion was created, he switched to Fang Xianzong's appearance.
The next moment, the phantom body wearing Fang Xianzong's face walked out of nothingness, walked to the bed, and sat cross-legged.
Xu Chong himself continued to hide aside, using the Yang God to sense good and bad luck.
After a while, Xu Chong felt relieved.
"The second step of the Spring and Autumn Tomb Plan is completed... Let's first look at the speed of spiritual source generation."
The day in the training hall just passed like this.
However, Xu Chong's face turned ugly.
Because the spiritual source has not been generated.
"how so?"
Xu Chong frowned and looked at the panel.
From the moment you enter the Spring and Autumn Tomb, the prompt on the panel is always 'The spiritual energy concentration is very high'.
Obviously, the Spring and Autumn Tombs, as a middle-grade cave, have a higher concentration of spiritual energy than the seventh-level imperial prison.
He is already within the rules now. Even if the flow rate is fifty times but half the strength of the rules, at least there should be some spiritual source one day. How come there is no spiritual source at all?
"Could it be said that the spiritual energy concentration is divided into the accelerated time?"
Xu Chong thought about it, and it seemed that this was the only possibility.
It is true that the Spring and Autumn Tomb is a middle-grade cave, and it is true that the rules can speed up time.
But while accelerating, the time after the acceleration cannot have the same aura concentration.
After all, if that were to happen, it would undoubtedly be equivalent to a hundred times the concentration of spiritual energy, beyond the concept of a middle-grade cave.
"No wonder Fang Xianzong said that except when practicing, the Fang family, regardless of their status, lives at the foot of a mountain that is not shrouded in rules."
"Even the meeting hall of the Clan Elders Council can only speed up ten times."
Xu Chong was slightly disappointed, "It seems that the five years in this training hall still have to focus on self-cultivation."
"Only the conditions are too limited..."
Among the three kinds of Tao, whether it is Zifu, Huangting, or Yuchi, the most basic cultivation method is to use the continuous power to strengthen and sublimate the Tao.
However, in addition to the basic methods, there are additional means to speed up practice.
For example, in the Purple Mansion, the yin and yang gods fly high in the sky and are baptized by the light of the sun and the moon and the heavenly wind.
For example, Huang Ting cultivates the Tao, comprehends the changes in heaven and earth, and strengthens his connection with the power of heaven and earth.
Both of these can only be done externally.
After all, the cave sky is just a cave sky. Even if there is a sun, moon and heaven and earth, it is not the real sun, moon and heaven and earth.
Only the Yuchi Tao Seed can beat the physical body regardless of time and place, speeding up the fusion of the physical body and the power of the Tao Seed.
As for the method of beating the physical body, it is also very simple, just beat yourself.
It is somewhat similar to the legendary external exercises in previous lives, and has some meaning of returning to human nature.
Perhaps this is why Yuchi Zhongdao is called Zhenren.
In short, given the current conditions in the training hall, this is the only one applicable.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
The sound of gold and iron clashing began to sound in the stone chamber.
Day after day passes.
Until the twenty-fifth day, the spiritual source was generated at 1 point.
"Twenty-five days is equivalent to six hours in the outside world. In other words, two spiritual sources can be generated in one day."
"The Earth-level training hall with only half the intensity of the regulations is comparable to the seventh-level prison!"
"No, it's not just the spiritual source..."
"In these twenty-five days, I have taken a small step towards the second level of copper skin. If converted, it is worth 2 points of spiritual source! It is more efficient than the panel!"
"In total, after a complete day in the outside world, my total gain is equivalent to 6 points of spiritual source!"
"So, this is the real use of Dou Zhuan Xing Yi?"
Xu Chong felt extremely excited, and then he naturally thought of the middle one among the three tombs on the top of the mountain.
In Fang Xianzong's introduction, the entire Spring and Autumn Tombs were divided into five levels: heaven, earth, black and yellow.
The stepless tomb is used for daily living and as a place to store various materials. It does not have any effect of accelerating time.
Going up from the foot of the mountain to near the top of the mountain is the Xuanji tomb, where the time increase rate is ten times.
Including training hall, meeting hall, pharmaceutical hall, craftsmanship hall, etc.
The underground tombs and the heavenly tombs are both on the top of the mountain.
There are two training halls and one Spring and Autumn Hall.
The Chunqiu Hall is the tomb in the middle with the words "Spring and Autumn" engraved on the tombstone.
Only three people can be accommodated at the same time to enjoy the effects of the rules.
The three youngest generations have one quota per generation.
For example, now, there are three generations: the Lezi generation, the Jingzi generation, and the Xianzi generation.
If you want to be qualified to enter the Spring and Autumn Hall, you must either become the strongest among your peers, or you must queue up honestly.
"If it were Chunqiu Hall, my daily gains would double again..."
"No wonder Fang Xianzong knew he was going to die, yet he still told me so much. It seems that he is determined that I will definitely participate in the competition."
Xu Chong was thoughtful.
Originally, he planned to just use Fang Xianzong's identity and use the training hall to practice while maintaining Lin Kuang's illusionary body.
If no one is looking for trouble, he is not prepared to interfere in the Fang family's affairs.
But now it seems that it is still necessary to fight.
"Tsk tsk tsk."
Xu Chong raised his lips and said, "There is no guilt in killing peers. This rule... is simply tailor-made for me."
In this way, the year in the training hall passed by in a hurry.
If left to the outside world, it would only last a week.
…
Zhan Shifu.
After a whole week of non-stop sleep, Xu Chong had read all the official history of the Economic Bureau.
How to say it.
It was a little different from what he thought.
You know, he read these historical records with preconceived malice.
However, as he looked at it, not only did this malice completely dissipate, he was even led astray, thinking that many of the previous Qing emperors were wise and virtuous emperors.
Especially the first three thousand years of the five thousand years of records.
Land, rewards and punishments, joining the army, doing business, imperial examinations...
Systems in all aspects have undergone reforms time and time again.
The most conspicuous thing is the land aspect.
From the well-field system, to the equalized land system, to the one-whip system, and finally to the system of dividing land into acres, no head tax was levied anymore.
It looks like the efforts of so many dynasties in previous lives were completed in one dynasty.
The difference is that there is no dynasty change, and there is no process of destruction and re-establishment, which makes the speed of this reform slower.
Don't underestimate this kind of reform.
On the surface, this reform is to protect the court's tax revenue, but more importantly, it is to eliminate official corruption to a greater extent and reduce the burden on the people.
And basically every time there is a reform, aristocratic families interfere, exclude, frame, assassinate, and all kinds of means fall on the person who presides over the reform.
Without exception, these aristocratic families were seized and exterminated by successive emperors in the most forceful manner, leaving no room for them.
The most exaggerated thing is that the Chinese and German emperors more than 2,000 years ago, in order to promote the idea of dividing the land between children and households, directly punished six hereditary dukes and fourteen hereditary marquises for treason, and all nine clans were executed.
As a result, the court was mostly empty, and it took five years for it to recover.
The Chinese and German emperors were willing to pay for it, and they had to do everything in their own hands for five years. The highest record was in the Tianji Palace, where they stayed awake for three consecutive months without eating or drinking, handling all the major and minor government affairs of thirty provinces in the two capitals.
Xu Chong couldn't help but admire this.
Even if the history books have been beautified, at least the achievements are there.
As for the emperors of China and Germany, as various systems were perfected to the point where they could not be changed, the emperor's appearance gradually decreased, and the focus recorded in history books fell on the cabinet.
"It seems that there has been a problem with the position of emperor for nearly two thousand years."
Xu Chong rubbed his eyebrows, "If I want to know exactly when it started, I'm afraid I have to look at the Ministry of Household Affairs. I don't know if Mr. Lou has gained anything..."
The Ministry of Household Affairs compiles statistics on various data every year, such as the revenue and expenditure reserves of various materials and the population of various provinces and regions.
This includes data changes before and after disaster relief.
Even if the disaster relief process is blurred or destroyed, the data in this area cannot be perfectly hidden.
If nothing else goes wrong, Lou Youzhi has already started.
Xu Chong was thinking when there was a knock on the door.
Dong Dong…
"Can Xu Yimai be in there?"
Then the unfamiliar voice came to mind.
Not Xu Xima, Master Xu, but Xu Yimai...
Xu Chong's eyes flashed and he said loudly: "Come in."
——Squeak.
A man who looked about fifty stepped in.
Xu Chong's pupils shrank sharply.
Because of the way the visitor is dressed.
He wears a black gauze winged crown, bright red silk uniforms, and a jade belt around his waist.
The patches on the chest and arms of the uniform... are five-clawed dragon patterns!
So it's obvious.
This is the prince, Jiang Xinghe.
Xu Chong stood up and was about to salute, but unexpectedly Jiang Xinghe spoke first.
"Royal Jiang Xinghe has met Xu Yimai."
Jiang Xinghe smiled and held his hands from afar, his voice was hearty and his expression was natural.
It's like a spring breeze.
"Wei Chen has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
Xu Chong left the main case and saluted from a distance.
Jiang Xinghe walked closer, held Xu Chong up, and said with a smile: "According to the rules, you have to call me His Highness the Crown Prince, and I have to call you Xu Yimai, but the problem is that I don't like to stick to rules."
Xu Chong raised his eyebrows: "Your Highness means..."
"Today there is no prince and Xima here, and there is no royal family or legacy."
Jiang Xinghe's eyes were sharp and he said meaningfully: "There is only one person who doesn't know and one person who knows."
Xu Chong's heart suddenly sank: "Wei Chen doesn't understand what His Highness means."
"Then I'll be more straightforward."
Jiang Xinghe nodded, "There is a locust plague in Yongzhou. I know it is my father who is obstructing disaster relief."
"Your Highness is worrying too much."
Xu Chong remained calm.
"Are you worrying too much? Don't you know?"
Jiang Xinghe didn't care. He walked to the next case and sat down. "Your deeds have now been completely tampered with. But luckily, I have been paying attention to you for a long time."
"So I know that you were rescued from Taiping Road by the blood-clothed guards and left for Yongzhou alone on the way to the capital."
"I think you should have experienced the Yongzhou incident firsthand, right?"
Sure enough, there was King Qian who covered up the traces for him, but he still couldn't do it perfectly.
Xu Chong opened his mouth and replied: "What happened in Yongzhou was all caused by Taiping Dao."
"Indeed, from the destruction of granaries in various places before the disaster to the hostage of refugees after the disaster, on the surface, it is indeed the work of Taiping Dao."
Jiang Xinghe shook his head and changed the subject: "But I know it's not."
"Why?"
Xu Chong raised his eyebrows.
"Because there are a large amount of various materials in the royal family's warehouse, it is easy to provide relief to a province."
"As early as when the locust plague came back to the capital, I submitted a letter asking my father to temporarily provide relief with royal property, but the result was directly rejected."
"The reason is that if the relationship is too large, it will arouse the royal family's dissatisfaction and create complications."
"So I visited all night and won the support of all members of the royal family."
"But what I didn't expect was that just when I was about to submit the second letter, the royal family's warehouse... caught fire."
As he spoke, Jiang Xinghe laughed at himself, "Forget it that granaries everywhere have been destroyed, even the royal family's warehouses can catch fire. Who would believe it?"
"What was the cause of the fire?"
Xu Chong asked with narrowed eyes.
"There are many theories, including improper supervision in the hot weather, eunuchs seeking refuge in Taiping Road, children being playful and causing fire... none of them are reasonable."
Jiang Xinghe sighed, "There are so many warehouses, but the ones that contain food are burned, and they are all burned in an instant. Unless the gods in the Dharma Realm take action, it is simply impossible to do this."
"Dharma Realm...Who could it be?"
Xu Chong asked calmly.
"I have doubted my father, but he has not left Tianji Palace for three years."
Jiang Xinghe shook his head as he spoke, "There must be some unknown masters among those eunuchs who died in the fire. There is no way to find out about this."
Haven't left Tianji Palace in three years?
You mean, you didn’t even go to the harem?
This is a new clue.
Xu Chong kept this in mind and continued to perfunctory: "All this is just His Highness's speculation. It has been so long. Please don't dwell on this matter anymore."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xinghe's face darkened.
"It's been so long?"
"Has it been forgotten after so long?"
"When will the next natural disaster come? What about the next one?"
"Every time a province's population dies. Even if we have tens of millions of people in Daqing, how many times can we die?"
After saying that, Jiang Xinghe looked deeply at Xu Chong with a solemn expression: "I know, you don't believe me."
"I went to ask Mr. Lou and Commander Dou, and they had the same attitude as you."
"You think that since I am the prince, I will sit in that position sooner or later. Maybe by then, I will also become the executioner who massacres an entire province."
"To this, what I want to say is...the future is the future, and the present is now."
Jiang Xinghe stood up and walked out: "At least for now, I am still the prince."
"He is the Prince of Daqing who has been taught since childhood to have the world in mind and benefit the common people!"
